It has been found that many female soccer players still have a hard time living on a small income. One-third of the players participating in the 2023 Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand did not earn even $30,000 (about 39 million won) per year.

According to Reuters on the night of the 29th, a recent survey by the International Federation of Footballers (FIFPro) revealed that one-third of Australian and New Zealand women's World Cup players receive less than $30,000 a year. In particular, one-fifth were making up for the insufficient income through side jobs other than soccer. The survey was conducted on 260 players from 26 countries out of 32 countries that participated in the Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

The Australian and New Zealand Women's World Cups have been allocated the most prize money ever. FIFA set $58.4 million in total prize money for the Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, nearly twice the $30 million of the 2019 Women's World Cup in France. In particular, he also rewarded individual players, not his national association. Players from countries participating in the group stage who failed to advance to the tournament were also given $30,000 per individual. According to FIFA, the average annual salary of female players is only $14,000. 스포츠토토

"The players have done their best for the World Cup, but there are still important gaps that need to be addressed," said Sarah Gregorius, who is in charge of women's football policy at FIFPro. The total prize money increased significantly at the Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, but it is seven to eight times different from the 2022 Qatar Men's World Cup.
